5-Methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine: An Ego-Dissolving Endogenous Neurochemical Catalyst of Creativity

Christopher B. Germann

Activitas Nervosa Superior > 2019 > 61 > 4 > 170-216

5-Methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (acronymized as 5-MeO-DMT) is sui generis among the numerous naturally occurring psychoactive substances due to its unparalleled ego-dissolving effects which can culminate in a state of nondual consciousness that is phenomenologically similar to transformative peak experiences described in various ancient contemplative traditions (e.g., Advaita Vedānta, Mahāyāna Buddhism,...

Love and compassion meditation: a nondual perspective

Zoran Josipovic

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences > 1373 > 1 > 65 - 71

This paper discusses meditation from the unique perspective of the nondual approach and explores the possible relevance of this approach to applications of love and compassion meditation in clinical settings.

Consciousness and Cognition > 2015 > 31 > C > 1-11

Brian Theriault

Chien-hsing Ho

Dao > 2012 > 11 > 1 > 1-19

Jizang 吉藏 (549−623 CE), the key philosophical exponent of the Sanlun 三論 school of Chinese Buddhism, based his philosophy considerably on his reading of the works of Nāgārjuna (c. 150−250 CE), the founder of the Indian Madhyamaka school. However, there are salient features in his thought on language that are notably absent from the works. In this article, I present a philosophical analysis of Jizang’s...
